Sharing some of my retro tech.

I did a live stream on YouTube for the first time. It's not very good, but here it is. The point of the live stream was, essentially, to test live streaming to YouTube using analog video equipment. It mostly worked, though there is a lot of room for improvement.

The topic of this video is, vaguely, my video editing setup, and how I went from DVCAM to Betacam SP. This is fairly niche, pointless 90s video editing nuance that is probably uninteresting to 99% of people, so as an added bonus I shared a found-footage video tape from a midwestern computer show in the 1990s.

🇺🇲 Embark on a nostalgic journey through the fascinating history of the IBM Aptiva. Introduced by IBM, a global leader in technology innovation, the Aptiva series represented a bold leap forward in home computing, combining cutting-edge technology with user-friendly design.

💻 The IBM Aptiva made its debut in September, 1994, as the replacement for the IBM PS/1. With its sleek and stylish design, intuitive user interface, and powerful performance, the Aptiva quickly became a favorite among home users.

⌨️ Rooted in IBM's legacy of innovation, the Aptiva series showcased the latest advancements in hardware and software technology. The first Aptiva models were based on the Intel 80486 CPU. Later models used the Pentium and AMD CPUs. First-generation models came with DOS 6.3 and Windows 3.1. Pentium-generation Aptivas came with Windows 95 and OS/2 'select-a-system' (PC DOS 7/Windows 3.1 and OS/2 Warp) on selected models. Most models included a modem and a standby/hibernation feature called "Rapid Resume".

🌟 The IBM Aptiva was known for its innovative features, including built-in CD-ROM drives, sound cards, and modems, which were cutting-edge technologies at the time. Its user-friendly design and robust performance made it a popular choice for both work and play. From its state-of-the-art processors and expansive memory options to its vibrant graphics and immersive multimedia capabilities, each iteration of the Aptiva pushed the boundaries of what was possible in home computing.

⚙️ Over the years, the IBM Aptiva evolved to meet the changing needs of consumers, adapting to the rapid pace of technological innovation. From compact desktop models to sleek all-in-one designs, the Aptiva series offered a diverse range of options to suit every lifestyle and budget.

💔 The last Aptiva system was withdrawn from sale in May 2001 without a direct replacement when IBM decided to exit the home market. Customers were directed to the IBM NetVista, which was more targeted to business desktops.

Keith Parkinson's oil painting for the cover of the original Everquest took 2 months to complete and drew from his experience creating D&D covers for TSR (Sony Online Entertainment, 1999). Parkinson continued to provide cover art for the EQ expansions until his untimely death in 2005 at age 47, after which his studio mate Larry Elmore illustrated the series in his similar style.
